I have a text box that holds a value of 300 how do I make it show $ 300.00, not to mention their are multiple records that have 1200, 900, and I want them to display with the dollar sign.

Hello maximas4

you could use "format" to do it.
ex.
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. Format(300, "currency")
The result is "$300.00".
Hope that helps.

I wrote my own Currency class, since .Net does not contain one. This way, when I retrieve values from a database, I always have a value of at least 0.00, and I can add commas ($ 4,098.50), etc. Just something to think about.
